Property Description
A rare offering in Prospect Lefferts Gardens, 26 Winthrop Street.
This distinguished 20.5-foot-wide red brick townhouse is set on an extraordinary 132.5-foot-deep lot. Built in 1905, the elegant home is rich in provenance and architectural character.
The parlor level is anchored by a truly one-of-a-kind living room, masterfully designed as a ship's stateroom, featuring a vaulted ceiling, floor-to-ceiling mahogany wainscoting, columns, parquet and inlaid floors, and an impressive Arts and Crafts fireplace with copper detailing. A four-windowed bay with built-in bookcases and window seat adds warmth and dimension. The living room flows seamlessly into a stunning formal Southern-facing dining room with arched stained-glass windows. Two arched openings lead to a bright, fully renovated country-style chef's kitchen appointed with premium appliances and granite countertops. From the kitchen, step out onto a renovated back deck overlooking a bluestone patio and large backyard.
The second floor is anchored by a sun-filled primary suite with four windows and an original marble sink, accompanied by three additional bedrooms and a full bath. A graceful wooden staircase, illuminated by a striking blue stained-glass skylight, ascends to the third floor, where a charming sun deck, a beautifully appointed media room, an additional bedroom, and a full bath await.
Beyond the 2,930 square feet across the three main levels, the home offers an additional 970 square feet in the English basement.
This full-floor space benefits from gentle natural light filtering in through four windows
and two glass doors. Rich with character—featuring exposed brick in the bedroom or office, original wooden ceiling beams, and both barn-style and French doors. The bedroom enjoys a view onto the sunny backyard and provides direct access through a rear entrance. This level also includes a full bath and in-unit washer and dryer, offering exceptional flexibility for guest accommodations, recreation, or workspace, along with a dedicated bike room and storage beneath the stoop.
This exceptional residence is defined by scale, craftsmanship, and elegant, timeless design. A must-see.
